Tuesday, June 4 Homework

Welcome, new students!  I hope you'll look at this site and refer to it often.

At the end of the week, we'll make a new presentation schedule.  One change  that I think we should make is that Mondays there should be no presentation: too much pressure on the Monday student to both study for the test and prepare a presentation!  What do you think?

I've made copies of some pages of the text for the new students who don't have books.  Please try to get books as soon as possible or borrow a friend's book and make copies after tomorrow.

The homework which is due on Tuesday is Exercise 1 and 2 on page 199.  Please write this on a piece of paper and submit it to me in class.

By the way, Asaad mentioned a mnemonic (a trick for remembering something) called FANBOYS to remember the coordinating conjunctions for, and, nor, but, or, yet and so.  Here is a link to a worksheet to practice them.  I'll bring a copy into class tomorrow.

Link for FANBOYS:

Sorry about the alarm on Monday.  With all the construction happening nearby, this seems to be happening often.  I think that next time we should go out the front--apparently, the classes that went there were told that they could re-enter the building.  If we had gone out the front door, we might have been able to finish our class!  Sorry!

Oh, by the way, there will be no presentation tomorrow.  Dayoung (Kaylee) had signed up for it, but she's already left Kaplan, so we'll have a little extra time for grammar tomorrow.
